18. The definition of JK should always be combined with the cutoff scheme for the conduction band as is discussed in N. Andrei, Rev. Mod. Phys. 55, 331 (1983). RMPHAT 0034-6861 10.1103/RevModPhys.55.331

31. A recent update of Doniach phase diagram also discussed this point: Y.-f. Yang, Nature (London) NATUAS 0028-0836 454, 611 (2008); 10.1038/nature07157
32. also the sensitiveness of the quantum critical point to the system-specific features was discussed in V.Yu. Irkhin and M.I. Katsnelson, Phys. Rev. B PRBMDO 1098-0121 56, 8109 (1997). 10.1103/PhysRevB.56.8109

35. The importance of valence fluctuations in CeCu2Si2 has been discussed in the following paper: A.H. Holmes, D. Jaccard, and K. Miyake, Phys. Rev. B PRBMDO 1098-0121 69, 024508 (2004). 10.1103/PhysRevB.69.024508
36. However, both of the Anderson lattice and the Kondo lattice have the large Fermi surface; see, e.g., J. Otsuki, H. Kusunose, and Y. Kuramoto, Phys. Rev. Lett. 102, 017202 (2009), and references therein. PRLTAO 0031-9007 10.1103/PhysRevLett.102.017202
